Status changed from Assigned to Closed Fixed by r32244. ---------------------------------------- Bug #3919: Ruby in PowerTOP - too many CPU wakeups http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/3919 Author: Suraj Kurapati Status: Closed Priority: Normal Assignee: Koichi Sasada Category: core Target version: 1.9.3 ruby -v: ruby 1.9.2p0 (2010-08-18 revision 29036) [x86_64-linux] =begin Hello, Ruby causes too many CPU wakeups according to Intel's PowerTOP tool. For example, this simple I/O bound program causes 99 wakeups/second and accounts for 14% of the CPU wakeups on my system: ruby -e gets In contrast, when I run `python` (2.6.5) and make it wait for I/O, it does not even appear in PowerTOP because it causes so little wakeups. Please make Ruby more power-efficient! Thanks for your consideration. =end -- http://redmine.ruby-lang.org
